[FIXED] [DU] Switching Career Branch: Rewards Not Unlocking

@Wahsebinehsi To be sure I understand you correctly, you went all the way up to level 10 on one branch of the business career (which should have unlocked all rewards until level 6 + the ones for the investor branch 7-10) and then switch branches (something you could not do before) and started on level 8 of the Management branch hence missing level 7 rewards ?

Or all the ones you unlocked previously also locked again ?

The Investor rewards are unlocked, but when I switched over to management (8) after attaining the degree the unlockables did not unlock. 

I was able to unlock the rewards by having my second sim go through the management branch. 

But as far as the sim who completed the Distinguished Communication Degree and was at the top of the Business Investor branch, it did not unlock the career rewards for the management branch or start at the bottom of the business career. 

I've had the same issue with two other career tracks.

My sim reached the top of the Environmental Manager career, then switched to Marine Biologist after obtaining a distinguished Biology degree.

She did not receive the Master of the Sea reward trait. The Natural Speaker trait remained.

Another sim got a distinguished degree in Culinary Arts and a Mixology certification.

When joining the Chef career at level 8 she received all rewards, but after switching to Mixologist at level 8 the build/buy rewards from Mixologist levels 6-8 did not unlock. The Chef rewards remained unlocked.

It seems they did not account for this new possibility of switching branches when tracking career levels.

Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.59.72.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? The easiest way is to use the traits.equip_trait traitname cheat to give yourself two degrees giving immediate access to the two branches of a given career. I chose Art History (Traits.Equip_Trait trait_University_ArtHistoryDegreeBAHonors) and Fine Arts (Traits.Equip_Trait trait_University_FineArtDegreeBAHonors) to unlock both branches of the Painter career. You then join one of the branches and then immediately quit and join the other.
What happens when the bug occurs? You will unlock the rewards from the first branch, but those from the second will remain locked. In the example that I did, I joined the Master of the Real branch first, getting in at rank 8 and unlocking the Deluxe All-Season Easel. I then quit and joined the Patron of the Arts branch, also at rank 8 but did not unlock the Pre-Owned Painter's Easel that should have been earned at said rank.
What do you expect to see? I expect to unlock the rewards from the second branch of the careers joined as well as the first, because being able to freely change branches is rather useless if you still can't earn the other rewards.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

I think this issue comes from the fact that prior to Discover University you could never join both branches of a career with one character, so it's possible that joining the second branch was never properly coded to give you the rewards. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What is your current game version number? 1.59.73.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1) Enter a career with university signing bonus at level 8 2) Check the unlocks in build mode
What happens when the bug occurs? When entering a career with university signing bonus on level 8 the unlocks from level 1 to 7 remain locked. This is aggravated by the fact that a sim cannot re-enter the career at a lower level and can thus never unlock these items in his save- / lifetime.
What do you expect to see? When entering a career at level 8 I expect all unlocks from lower levels to be unlocked, otherwise what would be the point of a "bonus"?
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

@crinrictSlightly different approach, but yes, seems to be the same problem. Thank you for noticing. Feel free to merge or delete.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a Sim reach the top level of a career and be a Spellcaster. *In my case Military Career and became a Spellcaster in game.
What happens when the bug occurs? The level ten Military career / Covert Branch Sim In Black is not found in CAS
What do you expect to see? All earned career outfits to be available in CAS.

Brooks reached top of Military / Officer Branch and quit the career. He got a Psychology degree and went directly into Covert Branch and worked up to level 10 at Sim In Black. For whatever reason (do not recall) I decided to make him a Spellcaster. Both Spellcaster aspirations were completed and I was ready to move on to something different. BUT before quitting the Military I wanted to add the career outfits to his wardrobe. (Officer outfits were already added before switching to Covert Ops branch.) The "Sim In Black" outfit cannot be found.
*Note: The Officer branch career outfits are available but not for Covert branch.

Potential contributing factors:
Being in a career (Military) and becoming a Spellcaster.
Quitting Military career at top of officer branch and rejoining military career in covert branch.

What I see with my military Covert Ops Sim while a Spellcaster and after quitting being a Spellcaster.



What I should see (this is from another "Sim In Black" Sim of mine on the gallery.
